<i>The Alex Charalabidis Guide to Souvlaki</i> (further down the page in the blue box) spells it the way you like. Also note that while a Greek speaker will pronounce the word YEE-roh, many, if not most, restaurant employees in the Fluffia area will not know what you mean unless you say JYE-roh, as in the short name for the instrument stabilized by the angular momentum of a massy spinning wheel.
